    Bitwage vs Revolut Business FAQ

    Common questions when comparing Bitwage and Revolut Business.

    Revolut offers crypto trading within Revolut accounts, but you cannot send crypto directly to a contractor's external wallet as a payroll rail. Bitwage pays directly in bitcoin payments, ETH, or usdc to any contractor wallet.

    Revolut supports scheduled transfers, but it's not a payroll platform. It lacks per-contractor routing preferences, W-8BEN collection, OFAC screening, and ERP reconciliation. Bitwage is purpose-built for contractor payments at scale.

    Bitwage's masspay handles up to 10,000 contractors per CSV upload. Revolut Business supports bulk payments but has significantly lower per-batch limits for high-volume payroll.

    Many companies do. Revolut handles day-to-day business banking, cards, and expenses. Bitwage handles the payroll run: FX, routing, compliance, and ERP sync.

    For sepa transfer payments to European contractors, both platforms work well. Bitwage adds crypto payout options, locked FX rates, and compliance workflows that Revolut lacks.
